00:05 I hope you enjoy this video. Bye!
00:07 So I've already primed my eye. I've used the NYX High Definition Eyeshadow Base.
00:14 The next thing I'm going to do is I'm going to use three NYX Jumbo Pencils.
00:20 The first one I'm going to be using is Milk. I'm going to be setting that on the inner corners right here of my eye.
00:28 So you just basically apply that here.
00:33 It's a really soft, pretty purple color. And I'm going to be putting that here.
00:40 On the brow bone here, all the way down.
00:44 The reason I do mine so high is because when I relax my eye it's very hooded.
00:49 So the way I put the eyeshadow, it's not going to show up unless I do it very high.
00:53 If you don't have a very hooded eye you could probably get away with doing it just to about right here.
00:58 This part of your eye. But since my eye is hooded I do go up in a very arched motion.
01:04 Smudge this one down. Smudge. Okay.
01:08 I love it. It's a very pretty, rich, dark color.
01:13 And you're just going to put that in your crease.
01:18 Can you see what I'm doing? All in the crease right there.
01:23 It doesn't have to look perfect because this isn't going to be the finished result.
01:29 So now you get your finger and you smudge it out.
01:35 You're going to need a little bit more than that. You're going to need it to be a little more exaggerated.
01:40 Really dark.
01:42 And again, I do mine so archy because my eyelids are hooded.
01:48 I'm not sure if archy is a word.
01:52 Take a flat brush. Any flat brush will do.
01:57 Like this one. And I'm going to be using my NYX Trio.
02:02 Nude, sheer, or matte eyeshadow. You're not going to want something that's very sparkly.
02:08 Because the rest of the eyeshadows are going to be so sparkly, that you want something to kind of balance that out.
02:15 Close your eye and you're going to pat that on.
02:18 Kind of where you put the white.
02:21 Pat that on all the way up here.
02:25 In the crease of your nose.
02:28 All in the bottom lid.
02:35 And the very top of your brow bone.
02:39 Pat that at the bottom of your eye now.
02:43 Okay.
02:48 Now you're going to be taking a soft lavender, shimmery purple.
02:54 And you're going to take a dome brush.
02:56 Get a generous portion on there.
03:03 You're going to take this from this part of your eyelid. Right here.
03:07 And drag it in a C shape.
03:09 Kind of like where you put the lavender color, NYX Jumbles color.
03:14 You're going to do that all the way to the inner corner here.
03:17 But you don't want to go down. So you're going to stop about here where your...
03:21 Your brow thickens up.
03:23 Can you do that?
03:32 You're going to put that at the bottom of your eye as well.
03:35 In.
03:38 Next I'm going to be taking my pencil brush.
03:44 My dome stiff pencil brush.
03:46 And I'm going to be using a very dark reddish velvety purple.
03:52 Okay. So you're going to be putting that on your stiff dome brush.
03:56 Close your eye and you're going to be putting it in the V of it.
04:00 So for me, crease if you don't have hooded eyes I believe that should be enough.
04:06 If you do have hooded eyes you're going to want to bring it up.
04:09 Almost as high as the light purple.
04:15 And we're going to blend this in an arced motion.
04:18 Back and forth.
04:20 And up.
04:22 Okay. I messed up a little bit right there.
04:30 I'm going to go ahead and I'm going to take that same sheer nude color that I used earlier.
04:38 And the same brush.
04:42 And I'm going to kind of go up.
04:44 Right there.
04:46 And then without applying any more product to the brush, to the dome brush, I'm going to go down.
04:54 Get that lighter shimmery lilac purple.
04:59 And we're going to take a bit on our brush and we're going to bring it on the crease.
05:07 Not the crease. We're going to bring it on the brow bone.
05:11 And we're going to kind of blend that line. We're going to make it softer.
05:19 That darker purple.
05:22 And really pretty velvety purple.
05:25 And we're going to put it in the crease again and you're going to bring it all the way down.
05:33 You're going to follow your crease exactly. But you're not going to go past here.
05:38 So you're just going to go, go, go.
05:47 And then I'm going to take a flat brush. I'm using NYX one.
05:51 It's really flat and really thick and really dense.
05:55 Which is what you want.
05:58 And then you're going to go here again and you're going to pull that shadow down from the spark.
06:04 But only halfway.
06:07 So you're going to pull the entire...
06:10 So we almost got it.
06:15 See? We have it.
06:17 So next thing you want to do is take a little brush like this.
06:20 I kind of have this steel one. This is a bare mineral one. It came in one of those kits. The foil eye set I believe.
06:27 And this is the MAC Ultra Violet. It's such a pretty color. I really like wearing it on my eye.
06:33 I always start at the inside and I work my way out.
06:42 So now that I'm here, at the very corner of my eye, I'm going to make a little wing that goes up.
06:49 And then I'm going to connect it this way.
06:52 There's tons of tutorials out there on how to do this. I do mine a little differently again because my eyes are hooded.
06:58 And their shape changes drastically once they're open.
07:01 And relaxed.
07:03 See how that?
07:04 So now that I have that down, I go in the inner corner of my eye without adding any more product to my brush.
07:11 And I draw a little bit of a line here.
07:13 Adding just a bit more product just at the bottom part of my eye.
07:20 Now remember we took that NYX Jumbo Pencil and we extended it to here.
07:25 So without connecting the eyeliner, the top to the bottom, I don't connect it because my eyes are small.
07:32 If you have larger eyes, you can connect it.
07:34 If you have smaller eyes, the way I do, you don't want to connect it.
07:37 It's going to give the impression that your eyes are even smaller.
07:41 And I'm going to carefully line my waterline with the white.
07:45 So I've already curled my eyelashes and I'm going to go ahead and use the LAMCOM Doll Mascara Eyelash...
07:52 Mascara?
07:54 So I'm going to go ahead and use the LAMCOM Mascara Doll Lash.
07:58 Or is it just... Yeah, it's Doll Lash.
08:00 There we go, we're almost done. We're just going to do our eyebrows.
08:03 I'm using a brown by Benefits.
08:07 It's called Bossy.
08:09 I don't know if you can see it.
08:11 You have... Let's see if we can...
08:14 That doesn't get better lighting at all.
08:16 Here's the completed look.
08:19 I hope you like it and I hope this helped you.
08:23 Have a nice day!
